The Koch Brothers win no matter what you use in the East. They have petroleum interests, and coal-electric interests. As far as cars go, they make much more on the petroleum.

I’d feel bad for the electric owners, except they knew they were buying vehicles with inadequate needs for their use, and were dependent on the kindness and generosity of bureaucracies for their commute.

Contracts are worthless unless you have a lawyer to go over them. You have to be able to afford a lawyer, which isn’t too likely for someone willing to work on spec.

My wife just got a new Outback. They’ve definitely improved the CVT to the point where it works as well as any automatic. It also has flappy paddles for manual shifting its fake gear changes.

Listing the SDI as a single system is sort of cheating. There were a lot of SDI projects that never happened, each with its own R&D and budget.

It may for someone, just not our hapless “gig economy” app engineer, who in all likelyhood won’t be an owner when the money starts rolling in.

You don’t even need one that big. A 50 meter bollide would still take out a city (equivalent to a 2 megaton nuke). A kinetic weapon doesn’t have to be very large when it’s travelling at 20 km per second.

There was once a plan to make a space based defense system with a tarawatt ground based x-ray laser powered by a dedicated nuclear reactor, that would bounce beams off mirrors in space.

#4: This seems to be the point that the Benghazi hearings seem to want America to believe. That when Hillary got the call, she dropped the ball. So far, they haven’t proven anything, but I think they want to use that ad against her in 2016.

So work on my idea for free, and I promise I won’t fuck you over completely until money starts coming in and I can hire programmers like you all day. Because it was all my idea, and I made it happen by conning you into working on it for just a promise of how much money you’ll make when we’re bought out!

The distribution of asteroids in the 1 km or higher range is sparce, but in the asteroid avoidance scenes in movies, most of the asteroids appear to range from a few dozen to a few hundred feet. As the size decreases, the number of objects increases almost logarithmically.

Not my go to response.

The last time I applied for a patent, the drawings were deliberately misleading in the way I had planned to use the patent. They covered the essentials, but not the actual product design.

It’s set to a wider bandwidth that’s more inclusive?

Wow, the Barrett-Jackson auction price of a 2003 BMW 7 series (I forget which) that had bulletproof glass and doors that I saw three years ago that sold for $7500, seems like an even bigger bargain.

Aren’t you the little fascist dictator.

Rich people inconveniencing anyone who comes to their part of town. And painting it up as super duper eco friendly. Pretty sure the people who have to commute 10 miles to work there where there isn’t adequate public transit, aren’t jumping at the chance to ride their bicycles.

I had the 1.9 liter Opel GT with about 100 hp. It was still slow. Got rear ended and learned that the rear bumpers were bolted to the sheet metal on the rear. Luckily, the guy rear ending me was only going 10 mph or so. The car was accordioned all the way to the back of the driver’s seat. Without touching the frame or…
